Description
The Bihar government will launch a program in December for over 25 lakh children who are falling far behind their peers in school, with some of them unable to read simple Hindi words after having completed upper primary levels.
The state Education Department has urged teachers to extensively mentor such students in batches of no more than five as part of the 'Mission Daksh' initiative, with the "warning" that any laxity will result in action.
Additional On November 21, Chief Secretary of Education KK Pathak wrote to all district magistrates (DMs), requesting that they monitor the progress of the initiative in their districts on a daily basis beginning December 1.
It stated that district-level monitoring committees led by DMs would be constituted to ensure that 'Mission Daksh' is carried out effectively.
During the DMs' regular inspection and monitoring, which began in July, it was discovered that there was a significant percentage of academically deficient students in practically all state-run schools, according to the letter.
“Keeping this in mind, the department has decided to launch ‘Mission Daksh’ from December 1 in all government schools across the state to improve the academic performances of such students,” it said.
“Academically weak students are much behind their peers in schools… some of them are incapable of reading simple Hindi words properly despite having reached upper primary classes,” it added.
Pathak directed that such students be identified on a priority basis.
“After that, the principals will ask teachers to conduct extra classes (post-lunch) with not more than five children at a time. Such students often need individualised attention in order to fully grasp difficult concepts and bridge the learning gaps. This targeted approach will also allow teachers to personalise their teaching methods in a way that suits the unique needs of each weak student,” he said in the letter.
“All 25 lakh (approximately) such (academically weak) students will appear in their final examinations in April, 2024. If these students fail in their final examinations, strict departmental action will be initiated against their headmasters/ principals and teachers by the Education Department,” he said.
Over the last year, the Nitish Kumar government has implemented a number of tough measures to improve the quality of education in the state.
Pathak directed district education officers (DEOs) in September to communicate with parents of students whose attendance is less than 50% and to take corrective action.
